I am very drawn to it. I do wish you had stored the original so that I could download the actual image rather than viewing thumbnail. It immediately made me think of a series of books I read that was a much darker version of the Santa Claus myth. The dim figures in the snowstorm are intriguing. Love the textures and light.

It usually helps (me) when presented with non-representational abstract / abstract expressionist endeavors of this nature to have some idea of the artist’s goals and, if possible and not unduly prying..., some information on the technique/ techniques used. I am struck by several of your images that are suggestive of a blurred, long exposure radiographic process having been involved in their genesis. Neither Rothko (to whose works I was never particularly drawn...) nor Pollack (one of my all-time favorites) were, as I recall, stingy with comments about their motivations.
Howzabout some help here? Without it, I feel a bit like I’m twisting, slowly, in the breeze...just this side of the edge of beginning to comprehend your intent with this series.

Sure no problem. Not entirely sure what the work is about at the moment other than the human body and medical imaging. The images are of my body/ skin.
As far as the process, I use an altered version of the Lumen process using silver gelatin paper. I then scan the print which I treat as a negative for the final image. Finally, I manipulate the colors in photoshop and then make an inkjet print.
